Usage
Image pages
By default, images bearing this template are automatically added to Category:Images that should be in SVG format.
Category pages
On category pages, the first parameter acts as a sorting label. For instance, {{Should be SVG|flag}}
would add the category page as a subcategory of Category:Images that should be in SVG format and sort it alphabetically using the word "flag". There is an optional |subof=
parameter which can be used to list the category page as a subcategory of a different page. {{Should be SVG|flag|subof=flag}}
would add the page as a subpage of Category:Flag images that should be in SVG format, and sort it alphabetically by the word "flag".
